JOHN DEERE MOBILE EQUIPMENT
Full-Time | Mon - Fri
Bowral, NSW
Ready to step up and take charge?
We're looking for a hands-on Workshop Foreman to join our Bowral dealership. Nestled in the picturesque Southern Highlands, Bowral offers a fantastic lifestyle, a strong sense of community, and deep agricultural roots.
If you're passionate about leading a team and being hands on, this could be the perfect next step in your career. As Workshop Foreman, you'll lead a high-performing workshop team, ensuring work is delivered safely, efficiently, and providing exceptional customer service to our diverse customer base.
This role is ideally suited to someone who enjoys a mix of leadership and practical mobile equipment repairs, servicing and pre-deliveries. You'll spend around 70% of your time on the tools and 30% overseeing workshop operations, supporting technicians, coordinating priorities, and keeping the day-to-day running smoothly. One minute you'll be in the workshop, the next out in the field, solving problems and supporting customers.
If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, enjoy mentoring others, and take pride in leading by example, we'd love to hear from you.
You’ll be:
-
Supporting the Service Manager in training, mentoring, and developing technicians and apprentices of all experience levels to build a high-performing team
- Coordinating day-to-day workshop activities, servicing, and repair work to ensure safe, efficient, and high-quality operations.
- Identifying opportunities to improve workflow, efficiency, and revenue.
- Performing servicing, repairs, and maintenance on agricultural and construction machinery.
- Diagnosing, interpreting and resolving machine faults with precision using John Deere diagnostic tools.
- Reviewing and finalising job cards to ensure accurate documentation.
- Managing customer concerns, address complaints and escalate issues to the Service Manager where required.
You’ll bring:
-
Trade qualification in Heavy Vehicle or Diesel Mechanics
- Proven leadership experience, with a passion for coaching and developing teams
- 5+ years’ service experience and strong technical expertise
- A resilient, organised approach to work
- Strong customer service and communication skills
Experience in agriculture and/or with John Deere equipment is an advantage, but not essential.
Why You’ll Love Working With Us
-
Above Award Wages plus overtime available, especially during peak seasons
- Monthly performance incentives – because great work deserves recognition
- Staff discounts on John Deere parts, products, toys, and merchandise
